Understandable. It's setting a terrible precedent for the other kid that he can be as reckless and he wants with very little consequences. He fricked up and deserves to pay for it while your son suffers.

Late on this, but would definitly talk to your son and see how he feels about it...how he reacts should be the bearing on how you confront the coach...if he is indifferent than I would talk to the coach and kindly explain that he is an ass...if he is upset about it, go all the way with it

ETA: I had a friend in college who had a douche coach in high school and he and his parents decided that he would only play club soccer and not for his school, maybe an option if the douchebaggery continues
